Abortion
A controversial issue, not only in the courts, but as well in my mind. Determining a “personal platform,” if you will, is quite difficult to do, so essentially the only thing that I have determined is that it is not necessary for me to have to choose. I also find it quite ignorant to ignore the opposing side. So, I believe that every person is allowed to form there opinion or opinions, though they may even be conflicting, equally, one may also argue both sides. Many people believe that it is a question of morals, but I see beyond those simple ideals. Many people would also agree that it is not only a question right or wrong, but rather a more complex question of, “At what point does life begin?” Another question that people defending abortion would ask would be “Who has the right to your body?” These type of open ended questions, with out any answer, just a defense in mind have no bearing in my eyes. The question of “What point does life begin?” is a question that would be defensive in a mind other than mine, in that simply life does not grant itself rights. We do not give plants life, nor do we animals the we hunt, kill, and mount upon a wall. So why should we allow a fetus, an unborn child, a right? W
An agreement between two groups may be, that when the fetus becomes a baby, and can support itself out side of the host, it shall not be terminated. The Pro-life side may still argue that the fetus is a living being, and should not be, as they would put it, murdered. But I believe this might just be the sanction between the two sides. A woman may also have reasons for dismissing the unborn being. Perhaps birthing the baby may be detrimental to her heath, or perhaps the child is due to a raping of the women. Surely the women shouldn’t have to birth the baby, or should she? Irony, ha ha, quite funny actually. The pro-life side wishes against abortion, therefore they are hypocritically arguing. A mother, may have a condition that possibly may kill her, if she does have a baby. What then? Do we still proceed with the birth? What type of Pro-life group/person would say yes to that answer, but then again, what type would say no? For you are still killing something/somebody. A very strong argument from a Pro-life stand point would be to point out the different ways of birth-control other than an abortion. The easiest way birth control that is 100 percent accurate is not having sex at all -- abstinence. If one does not have sex, then I find it very difficult to see a way of accidentally becoming pregnant. Another method that is widely used, is by means of a condom, this method leaves a three percent margin for error (out of one hundred percent).
